It is alive!! Drinks all around!
The electric pump gave her the boost to stay running long enough for everything to smooth out and run normally( after about 5 minutes). A few leaks here and there( not my work) and one of the injectors is loose but, I got to drive it around the shop a few times in celebration. Now some finishing of wiring( routing, cleaning out the extras,...), exhaust, a couple short trips and then we head out on the highway. Hopefully by this weekend.
